One of the best episodes in the season. Reminded me of the good old times!

This episode had everything. It was filled with Drama, Emotion and Great acting. It answered a lot of unanswered questions that the viewers had and connected a lot of dots together. I loved it. Can't wait for the next episode to be out! I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next. What the ending is going to be like and how they are going to save the world.

For those who have patiently waited and watched this season, this episode is very rewarding and fulfilling.

Can't help but think about the ones who have given up on this series because it really has picked up with every new episode.

Stay with it guys and you won't regret it!

Continues to get better

Warning: Spoilers
Let me say once episode 5 came out things looked like it would not live up to the expectations but then it changed answering key questions the last 3 episodes. If you have not seen this episode don't read the rest of this. This episode starts off with Noah shooting Erica and Quentin saving her for answers of his sister which will be important in a moment. I'm not going to go through the whole story but i will say that Tommy and Malina are twins of Peter Petrelli and Claire Bennett but because of Tommys ability which is power absorption same as Peter Claire died unable to re-heal. Hiro goes back with Angela and Hiros power is absorbed by Tommy and unable to time travel. Noah finds him in the June 13th era present day and Hiro has Tommy bring Noah back to present day. Unfortunately Hiro dies and Tommy gets brainwashed. Noah is back in present day where Quentin somehow managed to survive and asks Noah what happened and Noah tells him but Quentin apparently works for Erica. Now about Quentin and Erica that leads to a new form of villains and Joanne who feels extremely happy killing EVOs which you cans kind of understand based on the death of her son. To say this I did not think they would pull every main key question off in this episode but it did and get ready to see an action filled episode next week and hope it continues to get better. Thanks to the creators of this show and I hope you can keep making episodes like these.

glimmers and hints of what this "might" have been
A_Different_Drummer6 November 2015
If you peruse the IMDb database, Gaspar Noe's incredible Irreversible is likely the greatest exercise ever attempted in telling a story ... backwards.

This very odd reboot (pretending to be a "mini series") comes a close second. For a writing team that lists among its characters "the master of time and space," they keep getting it wrong. Over and over. Like a time loop.

I will not contest (the prior reviewer for this episode is correct) that we starting to see hints, emotional jolts, that resonate in a positive way, suggesting what this reboot could have been. But was not.

I believe -- and as a reviewer my beliefs are all I have to work with -- that this story looked a heck of a lot better on paper than it actually plays out in real time.

Eight episodes to get backstory on characters, many of which we never liked in the first place? C'mon. The original Heroes managed to work through all of its seasons without even once falling into the trap of creating an arc around characters that were impossible to connect with. Even Sylar, the character whose idea of a good time was to skewer people with sharp objects, was magnificently done by Zachary Quinto and very empathetic -- look at the way Anthony Hopkins played Hannibal in not one but two major films, and yet remained empathetic always.

Regardless of the ultimate payoff, the climax, in this series (and I am sure it will be solid, they owe us that) reviewers of the future will I think remember this opus for its clear lack of a chewy moral center.

Oh well could be worse. They could have written zombies in too.
